When I was over in Copenhagen last year for a few days, I got in touch with Selina Juul \\u2013 founder of the organisation Stop Wasting Food - to see if she would be willing and able to be interviewed, and she very kindly said she was. The day we arranged to meet Selina was being interviewed and participating in a panel discussion at a national radio station, which I was able to sit in on. After which we found a suitable space to conduct this interview.

Those people who keep an eye on all things food waste will no doubt be aware of Selina and the work she does. She has achieved an incredible amount both as an individual \\u2013 from speaking in front of the European Parliament and the United Nation\\u2019s Food and Agriculture Organisation, to being awarded Dane of the Year in 2014 \\u2013 and through the Stop Wasting Food movement, which Selina started in 2008, which itself has won many awards and contributed significantly to raising awareness and reducing food waste in Denmark, by engaging politicians, supermarkets and households. The organisation has also been a key contributor to the EU\\u2019s own resolutions against food waste.
